E254: 🎙️ Welcome to The English Like a Native Podcast! I'm Anna, and you're tuning in to Week 26, Day 5 of Your English Five a Day. This series is your daily dive into enriching your English vocabulary with five new pieces each weekday.

🧼 Let's kick off today's session with the adjective "upmarket". Next up is the adjective "muted", used for both sound and colour! Then we move onto the noun "disinfectant" and the verb "cringe". Lastly,  we finish off by exploring the painful adjective "excruciating".

🦷 Don't forget that we'll do some pronunciation practice as always, and then I'll test your memory with an off-the-cuff story. In today's planned story, we see all the words come together as we listen to someone's fears become real when they navigate a dental visit in a foreign country. The upmarket clinic's muted tones do little to ease their nerves, but with some deep breaths and trust in the dentist, that fear and excruciating pain will hopefully go away!
